Chapter 317: People come to congratulate each other
Chapter 317: People come to congratulate each other
Therefore, many celebrities came to congratulate, luxury cars drove into the royal gate, and guests walked into the banquet venue while chatting and laughing.
The Wang family brothers welcomed and saw off guests, all of them smiling. Such a lively scene had been rare in the Wang family for a long time, and it seemed to foreshadow that the family was about to turn a new page.
"Third brother, there are so many guests today, don't let anything go wrong with Chudong." A square-faced man turned around and reminded.
"You know that the old man attaches great importance to this birthday party?" he continued.
"I understand." The third brother nodded in response, with a helpless smile on his face. "I'll go talk to her."
"Third brother, this is all because you spoil her too much. If it were my child, I would have taught her a lesson long ago," said a thin man coldly. He was the second son of the Wang family, Wang Shubuqun.
"If you don't want to take care of it, I will take care of it for you." Wang Shubuqun said.
"No need, I'll go talk to her again." The third brother replied.
"Okay, let's greet the guests first. Third brother, go find the old man to ask about the situation first, and then go find Chudong." The eldest brother ordered.
"Got it, big brother."
Meanwhile, in a corner of the Wang family's home, Wang Chudong was being held captive. She had been on a hunger strike for two days and looked frail. Despite this, no one paid any attention to her protests, let alone released her.
"Xiaodong..." Aunt Wang appeared in front of the window and tapped on the glass gently.
Wang Chudong turned and saw her mother, but her expression remained unchanged. She knew her mother had come to her many times to plead with her, but to no avail, so she didn't hold out hope this time. Today was her father's birthday party, and she wanted to use this opportunity to humiliate everyone.
"Xiaodong, eat something. Don't starve yourself." Aunt Wang stood outside the window, looking at her daughter with concern.
"Don't try to play tricks on me. If you really want to do this for my own good, just let me leave." Wang Chudong said coldly.
"He asked you to come, didn't he? Tell him I won't give in."
Aunt Wang said awkwardly, "Xiaodong, your father is actually worried about you too..."
"He was just worried that I wouldn't cooperate."
Wang Chudong suddenly stood up, but because of hunger, she felt dizzy and almost fell.
"Xiaodong..."
Aunt Wang exclaimed.
"Don't pretend to care about me. My life or death has nothing to do with you."
Wang Chudong leaned against the table to steady himself.
"Tell them I won't cooperate, and they'd better not let me out, or I'll make them regret it!"
"Xiaodong, why are you doing this? Xu Yuan is not only the son of the Xu family, but also has a handsome appearance..."
Aunt Wang said earnestly.
"I would rather die than marry him."
After saying that, Wang Chudong turned around and began to eat. Since he had decided to give it a try, he had to have enough physical strength. Otherwise, wouldn't fainting at the banquet fulfill their wish?
"Oh..." Aunt Wang sighed.
Aunt Wang sighed, turned and left.
Wang Chudong turned his head and looked at his mother's receding figure, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.
Even her mother did not support her at this moment.
Today, she felt lonelier than ever.
But even so, she remained determined and would never give up easily!
"Lin Fan..."
Suddenly, Wang Chudong thought of Lin Fan. If he knew her situation, would he come to help her?
But she immediately shook her head and smiled bitterly. How could he possibly know? In the sky of Wucheng, a ray of light flashed and landed on the ground.
Lin Fan jumped down from the sword with a smile on his face.
"The speed this time was really fast and exciting. If it had been this fast last time we went to Ancheng, Mr. Su wouldn't have gotten into trouble."
Lin Fan muttered to himself, his gaze fixed on a red-walled courtyard not far away.
There is the Wang family with a century-old history!
Although it is not as glorious as before, its profound heritage is still incomparable to emerging families.
"Find Wang Chudong first."
Lin Fan jumped up and entered the yard.
He walked around the yard, releasing his perception, looking for Wang Chudong's trace.
"Huh? Under house arrest?"
Soon, he discovered Wang Chudong's location and his expression became a little strange.
This girl is actually eating a lot?
It seems that she has a good appetite.
Lin Fan thought about it and didn't go up to disturb her immediately. He planned to wait for the right time to meet her.
"My second fiancée..."
Lin Fan quietly left the Wang family and called Zhao Ziqing.
"Have you arrived? Have you seen Sister Chudong?"
After the call was connected, Zhao Ziqing asked anxiously.
"Well, I went around Wang's house and found Wang Chudong, but I didn't meet her."
Lin Fan said briefly.
"As long as she's okay."
Zhao Ziqing breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why don't you just meet her? We can discuss countermeasures."
"There's nothing to discuss. If she had the ability, she wouldn't be in this predicament."
Lin Fan lit a cigarette.
"That's right, then can you take Sister Chudong away with you?"
Zhao Ziqing suggested.
"That way we don't have to clash with them."
"This is just a temporary solution. She can't stay away from the Wang family forever, right? Besides, even if she doesn't go back, the Wang family will come to Ancheng to look for her."
Lin Fan took a puff of his cigarette.
“Escaping will not solve the fundamental problem.”
"Well, let's adapt to the situation."
"Did you think of me?"
"We've only been apart for over an hour."
"But I think about you every minute of it."
"..."
"Do you miss me at all?"
"I have to go to a meeting."
After Zhao Ziqing finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
"You're shy, right? You must be missing me."
Lin Fan didn't rush to Wang's house, but wandered around nearby.
"Hey young man, do you want to buy some apples?"
At the entrance of an alley, an old man asked enthusiastically.
"no need."
After walking for a while, Lin Fan turned back.
"Weigh a few pounds for me."
"Okay, my apple is sweet and crisp."
The old man smiled and weighed three pounds for Lin Fan.
"Three more pounds."
Lin Fan thought for a moment and said.
"Put them in two separate bags."
"Okay, are you sending it off?"
The old man asked curiously.
"Yes, today is the Wang family's birthday party. I came here in a hurry and didn't prepare any gifts, so I brought some apples as a token of my appreciation."
Lin Fan pointed to Uncle Wang's newly decorated house not far away and explained.
The old man looked in the direction of Lin Fan's hand and said in surprise, "You...just gave me a few pounds of apples as a gift?"
Although the old man didn't know what the top ten families were, he could tell from the house that it was a wealthy family.
"Yes, you said it yourself, the apples are sweet and crisp."
Lin Fan nodded.
"But... no matter how good the apple is, it seems too casual."
The old man smiled helplessly.
"You're not young anymore, how come you still don't understand? The thought is what matters most."
Lin Fan smiled.
"Also, the key to gift-giving lies in who is giving it. If it's a city leader, even if it's just an apple, they'll be happy to accept it."
"Okay, young man, you're very good at talking."
